NEW SX LINE. SX88
A WORLD PREMIERE AT CANNES YACHTING FESTIVAL
Your dreams, expectations and wishes now take the most amazing shape.
SX88 is a revolution. The innovative steering position on the fly bridge can be entirely enclosed
and air-conditioned by the automatically operated side windows, leaving a free main deck that spreads on the same level from stern to bow – your exclusive loft
on a 27-meter yacht. Alternatively, a grand owner’s suite can be placed on this deck for a more intimate solution, an absolute exclusivity of SX88 in this range of
yachts. Incomparable space is offered on the wide beach area astern, which can also accommodate large watercrafts for your sea exploration.
Additional space is available to the fore, where a sunbathing/dining area is directly connected to the main body.

FROM THE MASTHEAD

Spawning Memories
I
was rummaging through my basement and came across a
curious memento of a charter adventure from 2004. I’m not
talking about the bag of shells collected on some beach (I have
no idea where because it isn’t labeled) or an item of indigenous
clothing (I have several, although no recollection of where I got
them) or a photo of a local woman carrying a bunch of bananas
on her head (I have several, but no idea where they were taken).
My basement treasure was a certificate acknowledging that I’d played a
round at the Mendenhall Golf Course in Juneau, Alaska.
Some friends and I had just wrapped up a spectacular fishing charter aboard
the 100-foot Burger Katania. In order to catch salmon on fly rods, we’d taken
great pains and gone to great expense, including shipping a guide in by float-
plane to share his secret streams. The trip was a soaring success with constant
action in some of the most beautiful venues on Earth.
We had an afternoon to kill in Juneau before flying out, and a couple of us
rented clubs to try the local par-3 course.
While stunning with its sublime views of the looming glacier from whence
it takes its name, Mendenhall Golf Course is no meticulously groomed Augusta
or Pebble Beach. We paid our $6 or $7 and teed up.
As we moved through the first few hardscrabble holes, we became aware of what appeared
to be a drainage ditch that wound across some of the fairways, with footbridges spanning its 4-
or 5-foot width. Peering down from the first bridge, we noticed that in the water, which was no
more than 6 or 8 inches deep, dense wads of the same pink salmon we’d chased all week were
thrashing and splashing their way upstream toward, I assume, wherever they make their babies.
I’ve stared down alligators and snakes on golf courses, and ticked off nesting geese, but I
have to say, I’d never witnessed spawning salmon in water hazards. As the men in my group
were both fishermen and golfers, such a sight might have had us looking for some string, a
paper clip and a feather to attach to our 9-irons.
But we played on, with that strange, wonderful scene stamped on our brains—exactly the kind
of memorable moment that awaits you in this, our first Winter Charter Preview issue. You’ll find
an account of a trip to the iconic Australian city of Sydney and its varied environs. You’ll also find
great Caribbean itineraries from top yacht captains who, like the Alaskan fishing guides, know
their way to the best spots. Our regular On Charter department features a sumptuous menu from
an adrenaline junkie who’s found Zen in the galley of the 130-foot Westport Aphrodite—all keyed
to making your charter experience stick with you for life, just as mine did.
We flew home from Alaska with heavy boxes of frozen salmon from the cold, pristine
streams where we’d waded with our fly rods. But in a strange way, my stronger memories are
of seeing those soldiers in those fairway ditches, executing their DNA-driven missions with
single-minded focus while we chopped our way from hole to hole at the foot of that glacier.
The greatest pleasures in life often lie in the unexpected, and there are plenty of those Kenny Wooton
moments there for the taking on a charter yacht. Editor-In-Chief

fuel capacity remain the same, with slight gains in

the 64-foot (19.5-meter) yacht draws inspiration
from World War I and II military craft, combin-
ing their features and shapes with open-concept
elements. (Look for the symmetrical air intakes along the hull
freeboard.) The interior design, by Baglietto and Margherita
Casprini, combines retro allure with contemporary comfort.
Built entirely in aluminum, the yacht hits a top speed of approxi-
mately 40 knots with twin 1,800-horsepower MAN V12 engines,

VEYEP AND EXCEL SPORTS
TEAM UP FOR MLB ALL-STAR WEEKEND

M
any of us consider yachting to be
the great American pastime, but
for another faction of fanatics, that
title most decidedly goes to base-
ball. So it was a home run when
four groups hosted Major League Baseball sponsors,
team and league executives, and some of Excel Sports’
top superstars out on the water during this year’s MLB
all-star festivities in Miami.
Home base for the event was the 154-foot (46.9-meter)
Delta Usher, where Veyep (MLB’s headphone and speaker
partner) showcased a new line. The 88-foot (26.8-meter)
Warren Mystique hosted corporate meetings and tours
around Miami. Guests experienced the charter lifestyle,
including cocktail parties and onboard soirees.
“The opportunity for Veyep and Excel Sports
Management to partner with Northrop & Johnson and
Fleet Miami was a one-of-a-kind experience for everyone
involved,” said Todd Dunphy, president of Veyep. “We were
thrilled to be part of this and look forward to many more of
these unique experiences.” northropandjohnson.com

Hugo Verlinden bought his first Sanlorenzo, a 60-foot plywood boat, in only after the original buyer for the first 52Steel pulled out a year

placement yacht. shipyard worked with Mauro Micheli and Sergio Beretta of Officina
It was a reunion that almost didn’t happen. Verlinden stepped Italiana Design, best known for designing the current Riva range.
“We took as our starting point the
in-house Sanlorenzo style, but we
were given a blank sheet to create
a totally new design,” Micheli says.
“The shipyard wanted clean, balanced
styling that would remain relevant
over time, which chimes perfectly
with our own design philosophy. The
result, inside and out, is discreetly
contemporary design without super-
fluous or frivolous additions.”
Micheli points to the soberly
elegant lines that integrate the deck
levels, and the full-height glazing
in the main and upper deck salons
with cutaways in the side bulwarks
for unimpeded sea views while
seated. The yacht is conceived with
alfresco living in mind, so in addi-
tion to the customary social areas
on the aft decks, there is lounging
space and a dinette forward on the
upper deck. Under the shade of the
hardtop on the sundeck are lounge
chairs, dining and a bar served by a
dumbwaiter from the galley. There
is also an exterior helm station—
unusual on a yacht of this size and
one of the many change orders
requested by the owner, who likes
to drive the yacht himself.
The standout design feature is
arguably the drive-in tender garage
that Sanlorenzo engineered. It

shell doors in the hull can lower to extend the waterfront real estate.
More natural light filters through the glass-bottomed swimming
pool on the main deck above. (The crew tender and water toys are
housed in a side-loading garage forward.)
“I think Seven Sins is the only yacht of her size with a 15-foot
pool equipped with active current for swimming,” Micheli says.
“Most beach clubs can be quite cavernous places, but the skylights
and three deployable platforms turn the space on this yacht into a
light-filled saloon pied dans l’eau.”
Chartering was a priority for Verlinden from the start. He shared
ownership of his previous yachts with friends to allay the running costs.
With Seven Sins, he included four partners while retaining a majority
share. Fractional ownership has met with limited success in the yacht-
ing world, but Verlinden’s approach makes sound business sense for a
yacht also destined for charter. His first rule is that the partners do not
use the yacht during the peak charter season; the second is that if they
have booked a week on board and a charter party wants the same slot,
they change their own dates or pay the full charter rate.
“The arrangement was based on a handshake, which is much
better than hiring lawyers to draw up a long contract,” says
Verlinden, who oversees the bookkeeping himself. “The trick is then
to be able to look your partners in the eyes and still be friends 10
years down the line.”

‘WE TOOK AS OUR STARTING POINT THE
IN-HOUSE SANLORENZO STYLE, BUT WE
WERE GIVEN A BLANK SHEET TO CREATE
A TOTALLY NEW DESIGN.’
—MAURO MICHELI, OFFICINA ITALIANA DESIGN
Seven Sins’ general arrangement is designed to maximize her
charter flexibility. In addition to the full-beam owner’s suite and
office forward on the main deck, there are two VIP staterooms, two
twins (one with beds that convert to doubles) on the lower deck and
an upper-deck staff cabin abaft the wheelhouse. A formal dining
room is rarely used on any yacht, so it was relocated from the tra-
ditional location in the main salon to the upper deck, with another
table for a full complement of guests on the open aft deck.
The palette of materials for the interior décor, also by Officina
Italiana Design, is effortlessly stylish. American oak joinery with five
different finishes is used alongside Carrara marble, white onyx, bronzed
mirror surfaces and polished stainless steel detailing, along with free-
standing furniture and accessories by Minotti, Flexform, Gae Aulenti
and Paola Lenti, creating an overall effect that is calmly reassuring.
From an operational perspective, an under-lower deck—another
rare feature for a yacht this size—provides direct access from the
crew quarters or engine room to the stabilizer compartments. A dedi-
cated laundry room and additional cold stowage are on the same level.
“Operational efficiency is something we take seriously, and the
under-lower deck is a signature feature we’ve carried over from the
46Steel and 46Explorer,” says Antonio Santella, Sanlorenzo’s vice
president of sales and marketing. “It allows the crew to go about
their work discreetly without disturbing the guests.”
As a seasoned yacht owner, Verlinden has had his share of ups and
downs, but now in his mid-70s, his enthusiasm for yachting shows no sign
of letting up. At the launch of Seven Sins, he was excited to take delivery
of a new yacht that also takes Sanlorenzo into larger-superyacht territory.
“A holiday afloat is something you never forget, and I have friends
who, 20 years later, still remember it as the best vacation of their

Australia is a bucket-list charter destination for

is born of variety. The continent is a cross-section of
the world, and Sydney, one of its largest cities, offers
a bit of everything.

from the chief stewardess, and two things became apparent: She was going to pursue her
newfound career, and she was not going to give up on the boy back home.
Cristin and Donoven married in between jobs and went on a six-week backpacking
honeymoon through Asia and Indonesia. They then landed positions together aboard
Moka. Cristin became chief stewardess, and Donoven was hired as bosun.

Cellar & Galley A CHEF AND A MASTER SOMMELIER SERVE UP THE


PERFECT PAIRINGS. By Andrew Parkinson

‘N
ot everyone can become a great
artist, but a great artist can come
from anywhere.”
That quote, from imperious food
critic Anton Ego in the Pixar
culinary cartoon “Ratatouille,” is ingrained in the soul
of Michael Creighton, chef on the 130-foot [39.6-
meter] Westport Aphrodite.
Creighton moved with his family from Boston to
southern Alaska at age 8. It was his parents’ intention
to start an organic vegetable farm. By age 10, he was
cooking regularly for his family of eight.
“I told my mother—an incredible chef—that
I wanted to learn how to cook,” Creighton recalls.
“She said, ‘First you need to learn about growing
food.’ It wasn’t until years later that I understood the
importance of that.”
Creighton is interested in farm-to-table cuisine
because fresh food means subtle flavors combining
well. He doesn’t like to cook with, say, a lot of butter,
because its flavor overwhelms a dish.
“But take a carrot, for example,” he says. “You
can grow a carrot in two completely different fields,
and the unique qualities of each field will render the
carrot’s taste dramatically.”
Creighton joined the yachting industry at
the urging of his older brother, a yacht captain.
Creighton had attended a vegan culinary school in
the Berkshires of western Massachusetts, schooling
that he downplayed so as not to be pegged as a “vegan
chef.” But the industry trend of healthy living suited
his arsenal of expertise, especially macrobiotic cuisine
(based on the theory that the body prefers foods that
grow naturally in the local ecosystem). He credits
macrobiotic expert—and at one time pop singer
Madonna’s personal chef—Mayumi Nishimura as
one of his inspirations, and has cooked for the actor
Owen Wilson.
“I was on Maui in Willie Nelson’s bar having a
few beers and Owen Wilson was there,” he says. “We
start chatting. It turns out he’s into macrobiotics, too.
The next day, he invites me out to dinner and I’m like,
Chef ‘Why don’t I just cook?’ So he has all of his friends and me over to his
Michael Creighton house and I make dinner. It was wonderful.”
Like most experienced charter chefs, Creighton is proficient in
M/Y APHRODITE many cuisines, but he wastes no time naming Japanese as a specialty.

The main course is a Japanese specialty of shiitake-glazed wagyu

the savory, sweet and earthy flavors, needs a delicate but complex

THE BITTER END

FRANCO PACE, FROM THE BOOK “J CLASS,”


J Class Renaissance

COURTESY OF DELIUS KLASING


The J Class, arguably among the most beautiful sailing yachts ever to cross a start line, has seen a major resurgence in recent years, with six new hulls commissioned and two more
on the way, augmenting the three survivors from the 1930s. The fleet has begun to gather for racing events on both sides of the Atlantic and points between. A marquis J Class
regatta took place in Bermuda in June, in conjunction with the 35th America’s Cup. Seven Js, old and new, competed to the delight of sailors around the world.
